Dennis Green's son, who works for some kind of sports reporting outfit, was interviewed on 610am here in KC this morning and he said something similar. He speculated that the signing was a favor to George and his agent to give them a preseason game audition for the rest of the league because one or two of the Raiders QBs are going to be held out of the game this week. He might have also mentioned that the Raiders are trying to trade Tui (to Cleveland?). If they do trade Tui, George might stick, but otherwise, Green's son doesn't think George will make the final roster.
I think it would be an outstanding story if George finds a job somewhere and manages to get into the starting lineup and have some success before the end of the season. For a guy who has been through as much adversity as he has (admittedly much of it self created), to continue to work to get back into the league and redeem himself as relentlessly as he has, I'd love to see him succeed. I always thought Marty really screwed him in Washington.
